UNSPSC 50615213: Canned or jarred Non GMO rijnsberger onions

The variety of Non GMO onions known as Non GMO rijnsberger onions that have been canned or jarred for preservation. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50615213 Canned or jarred Non GMO rijnsberger onions is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable pickled or preserved onion products in canned or jarred formats. State and local governments procure this code primarily through institutions purchasing food supplies for on-campus dining, food service operations, and canteen facilities — typically Texas Health and Human Services Commission state supported living centers, county senior services programs, school nutrition departments, and correctional facilities. The work involves competitive bidding on packaged onion products meeting USDA grade standards and FDA compliance, with delivery within seven days to thirty days of order placement, F.O.B. Destination pricing inclusive of freight, and firm fixed-unit pricing over annual contract terms.

Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies, county boards of commissioners, independent school districts, and state departments of corrections. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, having posted multiple food consumables solicitations for state supported living centers and state hospitals.
